Halloween

The kids had a blast today.

That's what I love about Halloween.

It's no-pressure.

Once you buy the costume, anyway :o)

It's simply about the kids having fun.

And they look forward to it just as much as Christmas.

(BTW, I also love Thanksgiving :o)

Anyway, I took the kids to the park this last week for some Halloween pics.

They didn't turn out wonderfully.

And I didn't get any good pics of Charlize.

But the kids had fun.

Rayce's Halloween Parade at school

We went this morning the The Clay Ground for story and craft time.

They listened to The Teeny Tiny Witch, then made and painted a teeny tiny witch.

They had a great time.

It was kind of expensive ($13/kid), not something I could afford to do often, but it was worth it at the same time (kind of like when we saw Sesame Street Live last year... expensive, but more than worth it for a once in a while treat!)

I only took a couple pics today.

(pics from today are still on my camera card, which is downstairs, sooo, not happening tonight :o)

We wandered around the mall for a good hour.

It was a lot of work.

For a dozen or so pieces of candy each.

BUT, again, the kids had fun.

When we got home, I was exhausted.

Rayce went around the block with our neighbor kid Jamin.

The girls helped pass out candy to the trick-ot-treaters.

The kids were all on a sugar high, so bedtime was a little extra crazy.

But they're all asleep now, so it's all good.

Annnnnyway.

So much to do tomorrow.
I need to do a couple loads of laundry.
Put a million loads away.
Vacuum the upstairs.
Get us all up and dressed and fed by 8 in the morning.
Rayce on the bus at 8:15.
Charlize to school by 8:30.
Pick her up at 11:30.

Yeah. Busy.
So much to do.
Ok, bedtime for Mama.
Or more accurately... time for a waffle with nutella and whipped cream while watching Sister Wives :o)

Happy Halloween!!
